(This story starts off from the AT episode Incendium, which kind of explains the title. Incendium is Latin for burning and Rigentum is Latin for freezing. All rights to the show are given to Pendleton Ward. This is my first fanfic, I'm starting with this random idea. I really hope you like it, so enjoy.)

Prologue

July 7, 2015

A grade A, H1 Hummer is raced along a mountain road. The large vehicle continued for several miles, and then stopped in a small clearing. The first to exit the Hummer was marine captain, Michal Bates. He stood six feet three inches, with short wavy black hair on his head, and a body that looked like it was at the gym every other day. Michal wore denim jeans, combat boots and a light camouflage jacket and when unbuttoned it revealed a holster holding his Glock. All of the hell he's been through in his thirty-seven years made him look that much more serious. The next to get out of the Hummer was sixteen year old Eli Bates. He had on a plaid t-shirt, faded jeans, and converses. Then there was fourteen year old Anna. She wore a colorful shirt that said 'it ain't a party till I show up', khaki shorts and tennis shoes. Anna was about as tall as Eli's upper arm, so it's safe to call her five foot two. Her soft, shoulder length blonde hair danced in the wind. Each one of them carried a bag containing necessities, and personal belongings.

"Over here, quick." Michal said as he moved some brush revealing a large metal door with a handle.

"Mind telling us why you brought us out to the middle of nowhere." Said Anna with her arms crossed over her chest, and as if on cue, immense flashes of light erupted where all three had been not two hours ago. The city known as San Francisco was now under several mushroom clouds.

"There's your answer, now get in the hole". The two teenagers followed his command without hesitation and with haste. Captain Michal followed close behind them, closing the metal door and mumbling to himself "God I hate it when I'm right."

The captain led his children down a long corridor. The first to break the silence was Eli, "Okay, what the hell just happened out there Dad."

"I'll explain later, but right now I need you two to trust me." Eli and Anna looked at each other with horrified expressions, because they both knew from his many stories that when he said "trust me", he had something crazy in mind. They all kept on until the three reached a vault with a turn valve handle. Michal opened the large vault door, revealing a circular room with computer consoles surrounding a round platform with six circles inside it, each about three feet in diameter.

A voice that came out of nowhere said, "Good afternoon Captain Bates."

"No time for small talk, activate the cryogenic tubes and give me a current aerial image of every major city you can get." Three pillars arose from half of the six smaller circles. Then multiple images popped on to the screen closest to the captain. He leaned over to look and said "Holy crap". Eli and Anna responded with a concerned "What?"

"It wasn't just San Francisco that got hit. New York, D.C., London, Moscow, Tokyo, basically every place that's on a map, isn't any more."

The voice said "The cryogenic tubes are ready captain." As the pillars started to open and hiss, Michal forced his children into the pillars, and stepped into his own. He saw the terrified expressions on both of their faces.

"Hey," he said with the most comforting voice he could labor. "The only thing I can promise you two is, when we wake up… everything is gonna' be just fine." The doors to the three pillars closed simultaneously. Each person reacted differently to the new surroundings. Michal crossed his arms and leaned back against the cold metal surface. Eli rested his head against the wall and sighed. Anna looked around desperately for an escape hatch or something like that.

A chloroform like gas flooded the tubes. All three quickly fell asleep, and then the freezing agent was introduced. They were all cryogenically frozen in an instant. The three pillars sank back into the floor as hell unfolded outside.

Chapter 1 Frozen & Thawed

One Thousand Years later

"It's letting up. Hey Finn, let's go do somethin'" Jake the Dog said to his little brother, as the rain storm faded away to nothing. But Finn's only response was a sigh of gloom. Finn had been trying to win over the heart of the smart and beautiful, Princess Bonnibel Bubblegum for as long as anyone can remember. So Finn, trying hundreds of times also meant getting rejected hundreds of times. However, this time when she said no, it sent him into a full state of depression. He lay in the middle of the floor, wearing his white bear hat, blue shirt and shorts, and his light green pack, surrounded by pictures of her, holding a lock of her gooey hair. Jake told Beemo, their talking game console, to put on a game to cheer Finn up. Finn looked at the video game on the screen and started to sing along with the music of the game…

"I can't keep pushing this down any deeper"

"Why do I keep trying if I can't keep her"

"Every move I make is another mistake, I wonder what it would take"

"Because it feels like there's a hole inside my body"

"Like there's a hole inside my heart"

"It's like feeling is gonna consume me, if I keep waiting for this thing to start"

"Oh I feel like I'm all gummed up inside"

"It's like I'm all gummed up inside"

When he finished singing, Finn just laid there. The only thing that his song really did was put a disturbed expression on Jake's and Beemo's faces. It was almost pathetic. Finn the Human, who proudly bares the titles "Hero of Ooo, Slayer of Evil, and last of his kind." Brought down by a woman who couldn't even slap very hard. Jake broke the awkward silence between the three when he sighed and said.

"Look, I know things might seem a little messed up, but I can tell that you'll feel a lot better if we go do something." No response came from his younger brother, this made Jake a little pissed. "Finn, if you don't come with me I'll just have to tell PB how wacked up you are!" Finn shot a look to Jake that would have stopped a stampede on a dime. He gave it a few seconds of thought and realized that he couldn't stop Jake even if he wanted to. That and he would rather die, than let the girl of his dreams see him as anything other than a hero.

"Fine I'll go, if only to shut you up." He said with a clear sign of irritation in his voice. Finn put the pictures of the princess away, put the lock of her hair in his pack and grabbed his demon blood sword. Finn and Jake walked out of their tree house, though a grassy field and to the edge of a forest. "Alright I give, where are we going exactly?" said Finn. Jake answered with usual bombastic personality saying

"Where ever the wind takes us homie."

"You ha…" Finn was cut off by a familiar voice

"Well well well, if it isn't my two least favorite people in Ooo." Finn and Jake turned around to see the obnoxious grass ogre Donny, with a chicken under his arm. "I was going to screw with those house people, but you two are way more fun, so I'm gunna stick with you guys."

"Donny, I'm not in the mood so if you could just piss off" Finn said irritably.

"Oh, what did Finny get his feewings hurt." Donny was using baby talk just to make Finn madder. "I bet it was a girl way out of your league, who ripped out your heart and made you look like a totally wuss." Not knowing how right he was, Finn completely snapped. He unsheathed his sword and hurled it at Donny. The sword planted itself in the tree Donny was leaning on, not an inch from his head.

Everything went silent in an instant, except for the sound of Donny screaming his ass off and running for his life. Finn freed his sword from the tree and headed deeper into the forest, angry as a bull. Jake was still standing in shock and awe, when he came back to reality he was all alone. Jake grew to the size of a house and screamed Finn's name. He looked around frantically for his buddy, and then he caught Finn's scent. He was walking up a large hill when Jake caught up with him.

"Finn, what the heck just happened back there?"

"I'm not gonna talk about it, not with you anyway. Because if you haven't noticed Jake, your ideas aren't exactly the best" Finn said raising his voice in anger. "How's a little walk in the woods help me, huh answer me that!" The volume in Finns voice continuing to rise.

"Ya' know what Finn I've been meaning to say this for a while now. You need to move on dude, there are plenty of fish in the sea."

"You know I'm scared of the ocean." Finn replied while walking past Jake. Probably going back home to wallow in more self pity.

"Finn, you're a fourteen year old adventurer, and she's a nineteen year old princess. You need to face the facts bro, it's never gonna happen!" Finn stopped dead after hearing those words, he picked up a rock from the ground and threw it at Jake, and screamed "Shut up!"

Jake dodged the rock and saw that Finn had the same expression he had shown Donny a few moments ago. Jake stated to run uphill, terrified at the thought of what Finn might do if he got a hold of him. He ran as fast as he could with Finn close behind him. Jake stepped onto something made of completely rusted metal, fell through it, and landed face first on a metal floor. He lifted his head and saw a long hallway, then immediately began to run down it when he heard Finn coming. Jake kept running on and on until he couldn't see anything but black, and kept on. He only stopped when he hit a door with a valve-type handle. Jake opened it and stepped in quickly at the sound footsteps in the distance. He stood in a circular room with dim lighting and screens that broken and flickering due to low power. Just as he was about to close the door, Finn's sword closed the gap between the door and the wall. Jake screamed and ran to the other side of the circular room. Finn pushed the door aside and walked toward Jake.

A voice that neither Finn nor Jake had ever heard said, "Hello." As Finn looked straight in Jakes eyes with pure rage, he said "What was that you said again."

"I said Hello" the same voice repeated, but this time Finn and Jake heard it.

"Hi." Finn replied.

"May I ask favor from you two?" the voice stated.

"Sure I can kick his ass later, now what's this favor."

"I need you two to lift the three of the cryogenic tubes in the middle of the floor."

"Depends on what's in these 'cryogenic' tubes." Finn replied.

"That would be Captain Michal Bates and his two children. I was supposed to unfreeze them when all trace amounts of radiation were gone. However something happened to the hydraulic lifts. They are broken, so that I am unable to raise them."

"That leaves more questions than answers dude." Finn replied.

"Just lift the three circles on your left. The captain will be very mad at me." The voice went silent and Finn motioned Jake to do as the voice had instructed. He used his magic powers to stretch his hands and raised the first tube, then the second and the third. When all three were up, heat and a buzzing sound came from them. After several minutes the buzzing stopped and doors opened. Clouds of vapor gushed out and filled the room. Three solid masses fell out of the open tubes, followed by simultaneous thuds. Finn stepped carefully toward them. He took one look at the things on the floor, and his eyes grew.

"Jake, th-they're human!"

(Finally! It has taken me over two months to write this one chapter. Not that this is hard to write. I've got some pretty good ideas, I just get distracted easily. The second I get this published, I will start on the second chapter. R&R)
